A. FY 18 BUDGET APPROVAL
Mr. Warren stated at the last IMC meeting changes were made to the proposed FY18 Alaska Intertie
budget. This included adding $437,000 for the GVEA tower 748 repair and $171,000 for Northern
Maintenance of overhead lines.
Mr. Hickey wanted to note that under FERC 566 for SLMS Support and Intertie Ground Patrol of $60K
includes monitoring for tower 195.
Mr. Borgeson asked why the budget is not a zero based budget. Mr. Warren noted the balance is the
difference between the projected mwh revenue given by each utility and the expenses based upon a three-
year average. Mr. Borgeson would like to see the budget be as close to zero in future years.
